9:18 am
be answered and i'm sure the hearing today will be helpful in that regard. to me --. bill: we're looking forward to gettg some headlines here. let me back up just a moment. urhittt saidn ely mira k dhew? >> there is no question, and i think today, i mean there's been ref vailings -- velations through ap and other place, the state department i saying this, erewhwan or ak,th i nost that is why this has been totally bizarre. to me, bill, what this has been about, i've been at a loss as to why all of this would have been portrayed that it is and to me what i think it is about and wel so,nkis ksthhaer aniti i khe k t presidt is very vulnerable with his mission accomplished, spiking the football regarding usama bin laden. the fact is that extremism and violent groups and al qaeda is ve much on t

9:20 am
this, --. bill: these are heavy charges. now are you suggesting that based on what you have learned that secretary clintohatsi g ugl aee >> well, i don't use those kinds of words. i just know that, i know that you know, people have known from the very beginning that tse were terrorist atsd k, ok hevyalof fire that was taking place. the distce from which it was occurring. i mean this was a very sophistited attack. and i'll leave it to hearings, i kw there are investigations but there is questi th, t es lsur rn, tsaswn iny nn and i don't know --. bill: but the explanation you're offering us now is that this was all about an election. you stand by that? >> i don't think there is any question. i mean i look at the susan ce
9:21 am
yo shadow of a doubt that, that it was known differently that this was not abt any film. and i think she candidly,my theory and i don't know, we'll fiut,omeb gmepo,k tth k eshrer . you know, she's, so, you know, we'll see whathappens. let's get back the fact is that this was a terrorist at act. i thinmost us knew and thought it was a terrorist act omhevery nn t tatcng demehae sng that. and, again, to me this is all about a presidential election and it's all about a white house. this is my opinion now. okay? i don't, a white house that ct chees emirotecthi groups around the world. the fact is they're mutating. the world is very dangerous place.

>> that's really peculiar. why six miles away. fr an iestigator's standpoint if this little girl was abductedot f fromer mehy wld bkpack sht walk no six miles, obviously someone had to take the backpack there. that's the part that the investigators are a little bit puzzled withight now. but i can tell you new information that just came out, they are scouring that entire area, bill, where t bacack sngorna ,osdee. :is pce evidence, the home video that went out. i guess this girl has a couple of distinct markers on her face that distinguishes her from other kids. tell me have the veo. fo a cld l ior aco rsons. want the people to get a look at the child, look at scars, little things on her face and listen for her voice. that's why you can actually hear theudible sound of her. sometimes you can hr ahild's annyhom beto
